Just a few weeks away from WrestleMania, WWE prepares to finalize its main
event list with tonight's action at No Way Out.

What was, in theory, supposed to happen at the Royal Rumble now will occur
this evening, as we will finally know who will fight for Raw and Smackdown's
top titles. We'll also likely get a hint as to what is to come for ECW.

And that's just about it.

Yes, despite some strong build-up on many feuds across the Fed, only four angles
will be on display tonight, three of which focus on the respective Heavyweight
titles. No US or Intercontinental belts will be on the line. No tag team matches
to be seen. No, surprisingly, we won't even get a Women's match.

Instead, the focus is all about the Road to WrestleMania, and to be honest,
that will certainly suit a number of fans just fine.

Let's take a look at No Way Out.

WWE CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH

Randy Orton vs. John Cena

SLAM! Predictions

Jon Waldman

This match is happening too soon. And no, I don't just mean that it should be
happening at 'Mania, as per the stip from the Rumble. No, my friends, John Cena
is coming back too soon. Too often we've seen wrestlers come back too early
from a serious injury and end up worse for it in the end. I can't imagine a
clean finish here, only because Cena can't lose right away, or he looks like
a chump who came back too soon. You also can't sacrifice Orton, because then
he looks like the champion that never should have been. My guess is Mark Henry
costs Cena the title, drawing the DQ, and a ruling that Cena gets a rightful
shot again at 'Mania in a three-way.

Greg Oliver

Since everyone expects Cena to win, I'm going to go with Orton. Really, if this
is a well-done match then there is no reason that it can't be a three-way at
Mania with the winner of the Raw Chamber (HHH) in the main event as well. Cena
can play the trump card of the Royal Rumble win to convince the powers that
be that he deserves to be there (but he has to do it without being a whiny little
girl about it).

Mark Xamin

For the love of all that is good and holy, I hope Orton wins nice and clean;
but since Cena is WWE's untouchable Superman, I'm picking Cena. We can all collectively
throw up.

Matt Mackinder

Does Cena win here, get booed and then head to WrestleMania for a WrestleMania
22 rematch with Triple H? Maybe. That might be too predictable. Then again,
this is a lazy WWE booking phase were in. So Ill go with that. Cena
regains the title he never lost in the ring.

WORLD TITLE MATCH

Edge vs. Rey Mysterio

SLAM! Predictions

Jon Waldman

Why is Mysterio fighting so hard to be in this match? I understand the dedication
Rey has to the sport, but, amigo, it's not worth it. Hopefully this will be
a quick bout, because I'm scared for Rey's future in wrestling right now.

Greg Oliver

Mysterio has had his chance in the past, and probably deserves to wear the belt
again, if for no other reason than merchandise sales. But Edge will prevail
so he can have the 'Mania showdown with Undertaker.

Again? If Edge wins, will he and Vickie have a live sex celebration on Smackdown?
Dear Lord I hope not. Rey seems to be in a rut lately and his matches have become
very routine. Edge uses his familia to keep the gold.

ECW CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH

CM Punk vs. Chavo Guerrero

SLAM! Predictions

Jon Waldman

If Chavito had a background in ECW, this would be a great storyline. Instead,
Guerrero just showed up one week and a couple week's later took the belt. It
makes the brand look weak to have a Smackdown guy come in and instantly beat
the champ, doesn't it? This is the proving ground for this feud, which really
does have some legroom to go still, but so much is dependent on the two being
able to put on the type of match fans want to see. I can see Punk winning here,
but I get the feeling the Copeland-Guerrero alliance makes its presence felt.
Chavo wins.

Greg Oliver

Since we have to have at least one title change hands, I'll pick Punk here to
regain his belt, which will (hopefully) move him into a new feud leading up
to Mania. Shelton Benjamin, perhaps?

Mark Xamin

Chavo will hang onto the strap. Punk is supposedly in the doghouse at the moment,
but he's carried ECW all year long, so I think he'll get his big moment at WrestleMania.

Matt Mackinder

Does the ECW title mean anything? Heck, does ECW mean anything? Let Chavo retain
and send Punk to Friday nights to start a feud with the man that costs him the
title here, Edge.

As much as Jeff Hardy deserves to win the match (especially after that early
MOTY-candidate on Raw), we all know wHHHo is going to win this bout. I get the
feeling, though, that we'll see Hardy vs. HBK here for an extended time, with
the two facing off at 'Mania once again. As for the rest of the merry lot, Y2J
could have an interesting go with Umaga at WM, so look for that to be established.
JBL, meanwhile, transitions to a return to Smackdown and will be the first eliminated
in the process.

Greg Oliver

The only way that Triple H doesn't win this is if he doesn't show up.

Mark Xamin

The final three will be HBK, HHH, and Hardy. Oh, the drama. Of course, HHH will
win and goon to face Cena at 'Mania. Look for Hunter to turn heel in this one
and screw HBK somehow.

Matt Mackinder

Lots of initials in this match, eh? Umaga has no chance. Y2J isnt ready
for prime time yet. Jeff Hardy is, but not just yet. That leaves Bradshaw and
DX. Backstage politics goes a long way and HHH shows his worth by juicing and
eventually pinning Michaels to get the Mania title shot.

Let's see who our options are - MVP, who is destined for the Money in the Bank
win at 'Mania (you heard it here first, folks), Finlay, who will be screwed
by McMahon somehow and voluntarily leave the Chamber to rescue Hornswoggle,
Khali who has used up his usefulness, Batista, who had all 2007 to play around
with title matches (on both sides of the strap no less) and wasn't that much
of a draw, Big Daddy V, who isn't even on Smackdown and Undertaker. Guess who
wins.

Greg Oliver

Undertaker takes it, and it won't be pretty.

Mark Xamin

Undertaker. Guran-damn-teed. Edge vs. Taker for the title, with both undefeated
streaks on the line, at 'Mania.

Matt Mackinder

Id be happier if Old Yeller and Big Fatty were left out of this match.
Two chambers in one night kind of devalues the match in my eyes, but Im
not a lazy creative team member. This will come down to Batista or MVP against
Taker, with the Dead Man rising again.

CAREER THREATENING MATCH
Ric Flair vs. Mr. Kennedy

SLAM! Predictions

Jon Waldman

It's another overcome-the-adversity bout here folks. Kennedy's not winning,
though he rightfully should. Methinks that Kennedy vs. Flair will be at 'Mania
again, so I half expect a DQ win for Flair, as Kennedy wins the match, but won't
release a submission hold and the ref reverses his decision.

Greg Oliver

Who gets the rub of finally finishing Flair off? It would be a great swerve
to have Kennedy actually do it here, but then graciously ask for a rematch anyway
at Mania. It'll make him the big-time player that everybody seems to think he
will be, and put him in a real tweener role.

Mark Xamin

Flair all the way - he's not done just yet. His swan song will be at WrestleMania.
Maybe Kennedy can give him a better match than MVP did.

Matt Mackinder

Flair lose? Fat chance. The figure four or feet on the ropes gives Naitch the
win and a career extended for another six weeks.
